Challenge #130 - A Sketch from LeAnne

Hi everyone!  You all did such a great job with Jaydee's sketch last week!  A simple sketch is a great starting point for a wide array of ideas!   This week I have another sketch for you, just a little more stepped-up.....what do you think of this:

You can use any shape where the circle element is....use your imagination!  We can't wait to see your creativity in action!  And here are the samples from the Design Team for more inspiration!

Paper Players Challenge # 129 - Winners

Hello Players! Jaydee here. WOW!  You guys rocked my challenge this week and helped highlight the flexibility of the sketch.  There were so many fantastic cards to choose from and you really provided a great deal of inspiration for us all.  Thanks to all of you for playing along!

Before we get to the Headliner, let's have a look at the Design Team's selections for A Cut Above




Now, on to our Headliner:

I was drawn back to Danielle's strong, graphic, CAS card.  She really highlighted how fabulous this set is and the use of the oval frames was a perfect choice.  I also appreciated the repeats of the circular elements.  The button with the little touch of ribbon reminded me of the ribbons I have won over the years; perfect with the "celebrate" theme.  I love the black and vanilla with the little pop of Pool Party.  These cards made my CAS heart happy.  Danielle, congratulations on being chose as the Headliner this week.

Don't forget to come back tomorrow to play along with LeAnne's fabulous sketch challenge.

Colleen Begley
from Colleen's Creative Corner
Colleen's card really made me smile! I love how the bright colors pop off the gray background. The pinwheels are so whimsical and the embossed clouds finish off the scene perfectly. I also really like how the polka dots are carried throughout the entire design. Congratulations to you Colleen on being my choice for our Headliner this week! 

I hope you will all join us tomorrow for a Clean and Simple Challenge from Jaydee!
